Subject: [PATCH] task_struct: stack_canary is not needed without CC_STACKPROTECTOR
Date: Tue, 18 Aug 2009 15:06:02 +0900 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <4A8A44CA.2020701@ct.jp.nec.com> (raw)
From: Hiroshi Shimamoto <h-shimamoto@ct.jp.nec.com>
The field stack_canary is only used with CC_STACKPROTECTOR.
This patch reduces task_struct size without CC_STACKPROTECTOR.
